They sell them at 3-5 inches and people don't realize how big they get. Minimum tank size on some sites is 50 gal.... that is crazy. That fish needs 500 + gallons

Goliath grouper probably what you're talking about. I've caught grouper about 60 miles off the SC/NC coast. 26+" fish are fun to pull up from 120'. Forearm is on fire halfway up, and you can't stop.

Well my hi fin goby just gave a warm welcome to the twins...NOT! In his defense, they swam right into his little cave first thing. He didn't get ugly at first, but the second time, he chased them away. Nano violence. PG13

We caught king mackerel while we were out also. The one that I picked up the reel on, the rod ended up breaking and somehow the eyelets were on the bottom but the reel stayed on the top. I was fighting a 5' mackerel and the reel at the same time the captain was fussing because I wasn't reeling the fish in fast enough and I'm cussing him for having broke tackle...
That was the best mackerel I ever cooked. Sea salt, lemon, tarragon, and a hot charcoal grill.

Id probably freak out seeing anything in the water that could fit my foot in its mouth never mind something the size of a VW that could swallow me whole!

I saw some on some montis I got from a friend. Her tank is infested. I looked them over and dipped, but they still got past. I pulled them out of the tank, scraped the foots off the plugs then FW washed them. Montis looked like poop for a few weeks, but their color is back and the aipys aren't.
